Mathematical model for optical losses calculation in heliostat fields in solar tower power plants

This study aims to develop a mathematical algorithm to simulate the heliostat field behavior in solar tower power plants in order to estimate the optical loss mechanisms of these systems and consequently to assist in new projects design. The loss mechanisms calculated in the code are reflectivity, c...
